The holiday spirit is in the air, and the first snow of the season fell on Long Island two days ago. I woke up to snow on the ground—not much, but everything was covered for a while. Having the condition that I'm in the snow is the enemy. If I fall or slip it's not a good day so I was glad to see most of it disappear before the day was through.
Having said all this, it was getting close to the weekend, and I hadn’t shaved for the Saturday video release. I looked in the den and realized when was the last time I used True Lavender, so I grabbed the tub and aftershave, and this was the result.
The day started like a dream. I had been invited to a Thanksgiving feast with my nephew and the rest of the family! The gift I purchased on Amazon (Monster Truck) for my nephew's son Connor had arrived and I was set. Knowing we were expected to arrive around 2:00, I planned to shave before heading out. For the occasion, I chose my infinity shaving soap and Occam's Razor Enhanced Nano (O.R.E.N.).
The Zomchi Safety Razor in Black is an impressive addition to traditional wet shaving. Its stunning black finish immediately catches the eye, exuding an air of sophistication and quality. The craftsmanship is apparent from the moment you hold it; the razor feels solid and well-constructed, giving the impression of a product built to last. Its handle offers a wonderful grip, ensuring that even in wet conditions, you maintain full control over your shave.
One of the standout features of this razor is its balance. It feels perfectly weighted in hand, making each pass smooth and effortless. This design element contributes significantly to the overall shaving experience, offering precision without feeling unwieldy. While the razor handles beautifully, it is slightly less aggressive than some of Zomchi’s earlier offerings. For seasoned wet shavers, this can be a positive, allowing
A Word:
It's been a hell of a week I'm currently experiencing sciatica and it's truly unbearable I could not walk the first three days but now I can do about 5 steps and have to stop due to the pain. Seeing a specialist this Monday but I needed to do a video I have never missed one since 2015 so here is this week's coming to you from a chair.
Introducing our latest holiday delight for the discerning individual – Santa's Custom Blend Shaving Soap and After Shave. This unique offering takes a departure from the traditional and ushers in a more sophisticated and adult essence for your holiday grooming routine.
Introducing Santa's Helper Shaving Soap and Aftershave, a holiday-inspired duo from Wet The Face that embodies the crisp, invigorating scent of fresh-cut pine. This fragrance is a tribute to the rugged outdoors, where pine trees stand tall and strong, exuding a scent that’s unmistakably masculine, clean, and fresh. It’s not for the faint of heart—this is a scent for true pine enthusiasts.
Infused with a refreshing hint of menthol, each shave delivers a brisk, cooling sensation that awakens your skin and adds an extra layer of holiday cheer. The menthol’s icy touch pairs perfectly with the rich, evergreen aroma, making each user feel like stepping into a winter forest with snow underfoot.
C.O. Bigelow is a true classic in the world of shaving creams. Originally formulated by Proraso, an Italian brand with a long-standing tradition in shaving products, this cream combines old-world charm with modern efficiency. It's known for delivering a refreshing, invigorating experience, thanks to the cooling effect of eucalyptus oil and menthol. From the moment you open the tube, the brisk, herbal scent fills the air, creating a pre-shave ritual that feels both timeless and rejuvenating.
For those who've used it over the years, C.O. Bigelow has a unique way of bringing back memories of past shaves while still feeling fresh and current with each use. The texture is rich and creamy, perfect for building a lather that cushions the skin and softens stubble effectively. Even in the modern era of countless shaving products, this cream remains a staple due to its reliable performance and straightforward approach.
"Blood Orange" from Wet The Face was not originally intended to be a Halloween-exclusive shaving soap, but it has quickly become a favorite for this time of year. The scent, vibrant and zesty with a subtle sweetness, captures the essence of fresh blood oranges. It's invigorating and refreshing, making it perfect for any season, but there's something about it that makes it particularly fun for Halloween.
Maybe it's the deep, rich scent, the bold, citrusy aroma that makes it feel right at home during October festivities. The scent is not spooky, but its intensity adds a dynamic element to your shave that complements the excitement of the season. As Halloween approaches, Blood Orange adds an unexpected twist to your shaving routine—an invigorating jolt that feels fresh but still fits the vibe of fall.
